## Symptoms

- * While upgrading the Secondary Multi-Domain Security Management Server in Gaia Portal with CPUSE, these errors appear:

  (This example is from an upgrade from R80.40 to R81.10)

  `The package failed to install at [DATE TIME]`  
  `
  Reason of failure: Failed during export process.`  
  `
  Failed to execute: . /opt/CPshared/5.0/tmp/.CPprofile.sh >/dev/null 2>&1 ;cd /mnt/fcd/new_upgrade_tools_migrate_dir; export UPGRADE_CONTEXT=cpuse; export CPUSE_SHOW_PROGRESS_ID=Check_Point_R81.10_T335_Fresh_Install_and_Upgrade.tgz; export UPGRADE_ID=XXX; /opt/CPsuite-R80.40/fw1/scripts/migrate_server export -v R81.10 -npb -skip_upgrade_tools_check -n -d /mnt/fcd/new_upgrade_tools_migrate_dir/migrated_mgmt.tgz >> /var/log/install_Major_R81.10_ignis_main_T335_1_detailed.log 2>&`
* Similar errors appear when exporting the management database in CLI:

  (This example is from an R80.40 server)

  `[Expert@MDS:0]# /opt/CPsuite-R80.40/fw1/scripts/migrate_server export -v R81.10 -skip_upgrade_tools_check /var/log/export_test.tgz`  
  `
  The export operation will eventually stop all Check Point services (mdsstop). Do you want to continue (yes/no) [n]? y`  
  `
